Wonderlust is a festival celebrating diverse and conscious sexuality. Bringing together straights and queers, sex activists and curious neophytes, kinks and shy ones, Wonderlust serves as a hub for a diverse community. It also invites those, who haven’t considered being part of a sex festival before.

While the highly sexualised mainstream culture generates glossy ready-made forms of sexual behaviour, we focus on questioning and exploration, a DIY approach, the joy of self-actualisation and finding what is truly ours.

Wonderlust is one of its kind in Northern Europe. It promotes an open attitude towards all forms and kinds of sexuality, creates a fleeting and flirting community and builds an open, free-spirited environment for sharing and learning something new. After three sold-out festivals and an award from the Finnish association for Sexology for promoting sexual well-being, Wonderlust continues to expand. In June 2018, the festival takes over two venues in Suvilahti with an extended program of films, workshops, parties and talks.
